For me, this show had it's great moments here and there but I'm ok with how it ended.

If it gets picked up by somebody I'll probably watch, but if not that's ok too.

Second season was far superior to the first


I agree to a point. We got less Howard/Prime this season which was a definite highlight of season 1. I just finished s2 and I agree that it is a good ending, but definitely leaves it open for someone to pick up.

just caught up

anyone else think when super agent Howard told the assassin "I made a new, better deal" he switched with goody-2-shoes Howard?

I swear when the director met him outside the coffee shop on the street and gave her condolences, offered him his job back....that wasnt that Howard. I think they both knew they each wanted the other's life and switched.

Hope it gets picked back up

Just finished it. Great show. Yeah, that whole scene there was kinda pointless if they weren't insinuating the switch. And, his jacket with the collar turned up a bit, just oozed Howard Prime.

Another thing to keep in mind: Howard also repeated the word "If" when the director said "If she was still with us." It could mean Emily was not really dead - for he did look surprised when it heard it from Howard Alpha.

Anyway, if the show ends here, I can live with my hope that both Howards end up in the world and love they truly long for.

I took that to mean "that in a certain term.....there is a way Emily is still alive" i.e. she's on the other side

The only hiccup (assuming they switched) is that the assassin crossed back to with Howard (the one she doesn't really know at all) - would she pick up on it as they were returning? Because I assume she's in the dark. If super-spy Howard figured out a way to stay (which she wanted desperately) and not return to their world (which she did not want to do at all), she'd be mighty pissed if she finds out he fooled her.

I sure hope someone else picks up this series

I hope they do too. I just finished last night. Thoroughly enjoyed both seasons and the story has so many possibilities going forward.
